About Northwest Tane
A large and conservative North Tanian language preserved by the Duchy of Northwestern Tane Language Commission. Fairly similar to Old Tane. Key difference is the Tane upshift, the switch to VSO order with non-indicative moods. It's common in Tane but probably originated in North Tane.
